Chelsea will be looking to make it four wins in a row, when they host Dutch side Ajax at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday evening. 

Enzo Maresca's team have not been at their best during that winning run, but resolute defending, plus moments of magic from the likes of Pedro Neto and Estêvão, have helped the Blues overcome Benfica, Liverpool and Forest.

Midfielders Enzo Fernández and Moisés Caicedo have been the standout players for Chelsea so far, and whilst both players were not deemed fit enough to start at Forest on Saturday, they are expected to return to the starting lineup on Wednesday. 

Ajax travel to London in dreadful form. Their dismal 0-2 home reverse to AZ Alkmaar on Saturday means they have won just one of their last six games in all competitions. John Heitinga's side are also still looking for their first Champions League goal of the season, after suffering 4-0 and 2-0 defeats to Marseille and Inter Milan.

Our Chelsea vs Ajax Prediction

Ajax look painfully short of quality and confidence at the moment, which makes it extremely hard to see them getting anything from their midweek trip to London. 

Chelsea are not at their best currently, but as they showed at Forest on Saturday, they do possess an array of world class players capable of unlocking any defence.

Not only do we think that the Blues will win on Wednesday evening, we are tipping them to do so by at least three goals. 

Our prediction for Chelsea vs Ajax is: Chelsea (-2) to win. 

Prediction:

 

Chelsea (-2) to win
